The one with an OPI Y'all Come Back Now, Ya Hear! glitter sandwich!

On the second day of Orange Week, I've got one of the OPI sorbets from the Texas Collection, Y'all Come Back Now, Ya Hear? It's a bright orange jelly-finish polish. I'm not much on jelly polishes. I mean, the squishy look is neat, but I normally cannot stand when I have VNL. Both of the pictures below are two coats in direct sunlight.

See the VNL? Drives me batty. If I ever do decide to wear this one on its own, I would have to use a base. But since my original intent with this mani was a glitter sandwich, I only used two coats.

What is a glitter sandwich, you might ask? It's where you sandwich a glitter polish between two coats of a jelly or sorbet. I decided to use OPI Extra-va-vaganza for this sandwich. So...two coats of Y'all Come Back Now, Ya Hear?, two coats of Extra-va-vaganza and a topper coat of Y'all Come Back Now, Ya Hear? Here's what it looks like:

Interesting right? It was sort of a pain to remove, so if I do this again, I will really have to want the look :) Have you ever worn a glitter sandwich? Which polishes did you use?

**DISCLAIMER** I was not paid for this review by anyone. I either purchased these polishes myself or were given gifts as friends because I could not find the particular shade I wanted myself. I am not a professional nail tech, nor do I want to be. I'm just someone who enjoys polishing my own nails :)
